Sai Wan Escape – A Scenic Loop via Lo Tei Tun, Four Rock Pools & Sai Wan Beach
Join us for a rewarding morning loop hike from Sai Wan Pavilion! We'll ascend Lo Tei Tun (螺地墩) for panoramic views of the surrounding mountains, then descend to the Sheung Luk Four Rock Pools (雙鹿石澗四疊潭) to see the natural swimming sites. We'll continue down to Sai Wan Beach (大浪西灣) – widely considered one of Hong Kong's most beautiful beaches – for a well-deserved photo break. Finally, we'll return via Chui Tung Au (吹筒坳) on the Tai Long Wan Hiking Trail paved path back to Sai Wan Pavilion.
Who should sign up?
This is a slow/moderate paced leisure hike suitable for beginners with basic fitness. The trail includes stairs, rocks, light scrambling, loose gravel, and uneven sections, so some hiking experience is helpful. We'll maintain a relaxed pace with photo breaks.
Hike Description:
We'll meet at Sai Kung McDonald's and take the 29R village bus together to Sai Wan Pavilion (西灣亭). From there, we'll turn onto the path toward Lo Tei Tun (螺地墩) – a small peak at 255m elevation with panoramic views over Sai Wan, Tai Long Wan, and the surrounding mountains including Sharp Peak (蚺蛇尖). After enjoying the views, we'll descend toward the Sheung Luk Four Rock Pools (雙鹿石澗四疊潭) – a series of natural pools and waterfalls that are popular swimming spots in summer. We'll then continue our descent into Sai Wan Beach for a well-deserved photo break. After enjoying the scenery, we'll make our way back via Chui Tung Au (吹筒坳) on the Tai Long Wan Hiking Trail paved path back to Sai Wan Pavilion. Total hiking time is approximately 3-4 hours at a leisurely pace with photo breaks.
